Florida teacher: I'm being attacked for showing a Disney film! (With ...)

Jenna Barbee is a teacher in Hernando County’s Winding Waters K-8 school. “I am the teacher that’s under investigation with the Florida Department of Education for indoctrination for showing a Disney movie,” Barbee said in a TikTok post over the weekend. …

At the end of the school board meeting, Rodriguez said she called the state department of education regarding the incident, which prompted the state investigation. She said her daughter is in Barbee’s class.

She said at the district meeting Barbee broke school policy because she did not get the specific movie approved by school administration and said the teacher is “playing the victim.”

“It is not a teacher’s job to impose their beliefs upon a child: religious, sexual orientation, gender identity, any of the above. But allowing movies such as this assist teachers in opening a door, and please hear me, they assist teachers in opening a door for conversations that have no place in our classrooms,” Rodriguez said.

[The film in question is the recent Disney bomb “Strange World,” which featured a prominent gay character in a subplot focused on the issue. Barbee doesn’t mention that in her effort to paint herself as the victim. Florida has made it clear that schools are not allowed to present such materials in class, and Barbee either knew it or should have known it. She now claims that she presented it for its perspective on “environmental” issues, but even that seems like an indoctrination attempt rather than actual education. — Ed]
